Striped Shirt 9

As I stated yesterday I had a busy day so here it goes. I woke up and went to a Blue Chip meeting on the B& B Riverboats at 10am. My boss gave me some directions, but I didn't trust them and took my way down to the boats. It turned out my way was correct and my boss was wrong. The meeting was a little painful and repetitive. I hate when people say the same thing over and over again.

After my meeting I went to lunch with my dad. We were going to go to Pacific Moon in Newport on the Levee, but when we got there they were closed. They have new winter hours and don't open for lunch during the week. I was upset because I wanted to try a new restaurant. After our disappointment we went to Claddagh Irish Pub instead. Claddagh is always good the few times I have been there.

Lunch was over with my dad, whom I offered to drive back downtown, but he refused and wanted to walk back across the bridge, and I was off to Meijer to buy soda and ice. I was in charge of these two items for DJ's going away/leaving "party". I didn't have much time because I had to be at work by 2 so it was in and out.

I got to work a little after 2, but no one was there to party yet so I was ok. I had to do a few work related items before joining the festivities as well. We had pizza and cake for DJ's last day, which technically isn't till Monday. The end of the party led straight to leaving for the Girls Basketball shoot. The game was at Harrison which requires us to leave a little earlier. The shoot was a little long and ugly basketball, unfortunately they won too.

After work Ando, Jenster and I went to The Hut to grab a couple of drinks. Teed met us later in the evening, after his dad dropped him off. I said I didn't want to drink a lot and Jenster said she didn't want to stay out very late which means we did both. I had three beers and then Teed bought me a shot, Joel never does that and we ended up staying at the bar till lights came on at 2:30. This late of a night could only mean one thing, Slider's. I got fries, Ando got one cheese burger, Teed had three cheese burgers and Jenster ordered 2 White Castles. When I was deciding what to order Teed decided I wanted a Lizard, I can't remember what kind, but everyone thought it was the funniest thing. Of course he made the lizard noise as well. It was now time for bed at 3am.

My ninth shirt is waffle wear from Gap. It is gray with small black stripes and one of the few long sleeve shirts I own. I say shirt and not sweater, most of my shirts are 3/4 in. sleeves. This shirt was on sale at the same time as striped shirt number 5. I like the neck line on this shirt that it doesn't go all the way to the base of my neck, I'm not sure what the correct terminology is for this type of neck line, but I like it.

Ando got paid yesterday, but didn't use any of the money on a ring for me.
